Liverpool have officially completed the signing of Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain, the club announced on Monday. The move is pending the necessary international clearance.
In a statement, the English club confirmed: “Liverpool have completed the signing of Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain, subject to the required international clearance.” The statement added: “The player has signed a long-term contract with the Reds at the AXA Training Centre after passing his medical and completing the transfer formalities.”
Long-Awaited Transfer Finally Confirmed
The announcement puts an end to weeks of speculation linking the French international with a move to Anfield. Reports had suggested that Barcola underwent his medical on Sunday, and the deal has now been officially confirmed by the club.
According to multiple reports, Liverpool will pay an initial fee of £106 million, with the total potentially rising to £123 million through add-ons. The 22-year-old is understood to have signed a five-year contract with the Merseyside club.
Potential Impact on Cody Gakpo's Future
Barcola’s arrival could open the door for Cody Gakpo to leave Liverpool. The Dutch forward has attracted interest from Manchester City, who are reportedly keen to secure his services.
Liverpool are also believed to be in the market for another winger, as they look to strengthen their attacking options further.
